IMPORTANT READ-ME

Please see post #1 for complete Balenciaga authentication rules. All requests must be posted in this thread. Authentications are not done via private message or in any other thread.

See the link below for examples of the photos needed and the format they should be in (clear, close up, forward-facing, no angles, right way up, no bends in tags).

https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/required-pics-for-balenciaga-authentication.741442/

A link to the listing in question is required.

It is an authenticator’s right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format. If the listing you are interested in is missing photos it is your responsibility to request them from the seller prior to posting in this thread.

Thanks and be well!

Have you purchased the bag? If yes, then you can post it once you received. If no, unless you are quite confident of it (and can get refund should it not authentic), then you may want to buy it & post later.

Every letter, font is very important. The photos are still not good enough for me to pass it. It would be much easier if i have the bag. I personally encountered such situation. Photos unable to capture the sharpness of the font. But when i received the bag, i can see it clearly IRL.

Yes, I understand the importance of it, as well as the difficulty to capture with camera.
I will wait till I receive it and repost.
Thank you!

Thanks for your reply. The seller insisted it is authentic and will send me a copy of the receipt from outlet when she is back from her trip. She said it is purchased from an outlet, not a boutique. I will post the update here when she is back on 15.8.

I think the decision is on you to whether you want to accept the bag where there are inconsistancy, and the "reliability" of the "outlet". If the price is super good & you decided that you will never sell the bag as you love it so much, etc, the decision is still on you.

The next is, please post this bag in the ID thread (link provided below) to see if there is indeed such color in that particular season / year.

alla.miss I own this exact bag (purchased at the Bal boutique) and can vouch for the lightness of the imprint on the tag, it is faint on mine as well. I would be comfortable calling the bag authentic, but if you have any discomfort once you receive the bag, of course repost it.

Dear s.tighe! Thanks for chiming in!
I will definitely repost if it feels uncomfortable to me.
Thank you all for your consideration of my request.

Hello, thanks for your help. I posted it in the other thread. I absolutely have no idea about outlets in Europe and this is my first time getting a bag from the seller. She claimed to sell only authentic bags and posted all her personal pictures on her instagram account (to show that she is honest and responsible for her goods). The problem is that I can only get a refund with solid proof of it being a fake, There isn't any Balenciaga store in my country and that makes it really difficult. As much as I love the bag I would not want to keep it if it is a fake.

Hello, indeed yours did look like hers and as I authenticate based on the features we known to be authentic, i still maintain my stand. I don't know what kind of bags the so call "outlet" selling. It be be defected, not under their QC, or what ever reasons, i do not know, was not told & don't think such news was announced by Balenciaga.
